After I Became a Divine Monarch, the Sect Wants Me to Marry In-Chapter 482 - 325: Is the First Institute Number 1? (Part 3)
Ye Xiu was feeling somewhat frustrated, but the moment he heard Gu An’s words, he surged forward like a sharp blade.
In a split second of shock during the Mid-stage Returning to Void, Ye Xiu had already reached him.
He grabbed his left hand, then twisted.
Crack!
Spurt!
Blood gushed out, and a scream followed.
The other wanted to fight back, but Ye Xiu caught his other hand and twisted again.
Crack!
Bang!
His arm broke once more.
Wails followed, and then came a sharp, fierce cry: "I’ll kill you."
As he spoke, he suddenly opened his mouth wide, as if a large bloody mouth could swallow a person whole.
Ye Xiu didn’t hesitate, grabbing the other person’s head and turning it sharply.
Crack!
In an instant, all fell silent.
Seeing the man dead, Zhao Qingshan silently moved close to Gu An.
Things had escalated.
Ye Xiu was too impulsive, silently killing people everywhere.
He was really going to bring trouble to the Headmaster.
However, to Zhao Qingshan’s surprise, there was no change in Gu An’s expression, as if...
killing was just killing.
No wonder Ye Xiu’s attitude towards the Headmaster changed after killing someone in the inn.
The killing had been acknowledged, perhaps.
But...
Such indulgence could easily lead to trouble.
A slight mishap could push one towards extremes.
Hesitant for a moment, he then thought, forget it, Cangmu Sect is part of the Demon Sect.
And just as he hesitated, he suddenly sensed someone attacking Gu An from behind.
Bang!
He blocked the attack.
Meanwhile, he kept an eye on the Late Stage Returning to Void.
However, as he blocked the attack, he heard the Late Stage Returning to Void shout, "Someone wants to kill Daoist Gu, I’ll take him and leave first."
Zhao Qingshan wanted to stop him, but as he reached out, something seemed to interfere.
Such a powerful Magic Treasure...
In the moment he realized this, he saw Gu An being taken away.
"Ye Xiu, chase." Zhao Qingshan immediately wanted to follow.
However, Zhan Tai Xiu stood in front of him and said, "Fellow Daoist, this is a forest. Once you enter, it’s hard to get out." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
But Ye Xiu directly chased after them.
Zhao Qingshan didn’t move.
The person in front had a Magic Treasure, likely mostly aimed at Ye Xiu.
So even though he could go after them, he decided not to pursue.
After all...
He needed to seek help from another faction within the Cangmu Sect.
At this moment, Cheng Yifei immediately ran over and said seriously, "The forest really shouldn’t be entered lightly, it’s easy to get lost inside.
The only solution is to start logging."
From a distance, Chu Meng leaned on her hand and watched everything, saying, "Just two Returning to Void guards, and they got caught just like that?"
Chunyu poured tea beside her and said, "It must be the influence of the Magic Treasure. Those two Returning to Voids were affected from the start; they were too close."
Chu Meng looked towards the mountain and said, "Do you think these people are coming to log just to find one tree?"
"Yes, it’s said that the tree bewitches people, then has them nourish the big tree with their Essence Blood, and in the end, the tree absorbs them.
As for Cheng Yifei, he’s looking for his grandfather’s legacy; he said his grandfather died under that tree.
Finding the tree means finding the legacy and some tokens.
That way, their lineage won’t just end with someone nearing death," Chunyu spoke calmly.
Chu Meng frowned, "I heard Gu An enjoys logging. I wonder if he will continue to chop when he encounters this tree."
"It’s probably not so simple; this tree can bewitch many powerful beings. It seems to have some capabilities," Chunyu made her guess, paused, then continued, "Moreover, he was captured by a Late Stage Returning to Void; it’s more likely bad luck than good."
